I'm a slow stitcher too so I know what you mean about doing small projects. It's so satisfying having something finished. You've got some lovely pieces in this thread :)

Love the sampler you've just started.

The dog in my avatar is KK Slider a character from the Nintendo game Animal Crossing, a game I used to play a lot on my DS, but since my DS broke his DS he uses mine to play his Pokemon games and I dont get a look in!! :roll:
I've never heard of that game?? Aw, sorry you don't get to play much anymore - maybe devise a schedual? :D It's interesting learning about new characters, but I must say KK Slider looks alot like snoopy in 3D :lol:

For the "hi mom" pattern, do you think it could pass as the breed being golden labs and not golden retrievers? I thought they were labs, and it won't work out for a gift if they are not. :( Please let me know your thoughts.

Question40....(sorry to be a nosey-parker here) but isn't the real name of the one breed the Golden Labrador Retriever? (If I'm wrong, I'm sorry for butting in...if I'm right, I'm sorry I butted in!) :wink:

Love your stitching! I have just looked through the thread - they are so cute! :wub:
Don't worry about being short of time for stitching - it's enjoying it that matters, not the speed you turn 'em out! :applesauce: :applesauce:

backafteradozenyrs: I believe there are Golden Labradors and Labrador Retrievers. lol. They look similar, but Golden Labs tend to have shorter fur I think..ugh.. lol.

The cross stitch pattern looks slightly more of a golden retriever, but I'm wondering if it can pass as a Labrador... Or if anyone has an online pattern I can use for a Labrador. Thanks.

Just to point out this thread was over two years' old so if you don't get an answer to your question that's why.

So, I think I'm just going to change the dog to a lighter colour and then make the ears more pointy to make it look like a yellow lab. lol. Solved my problem. lol.
